netfilter: nft_limit: fix packet ratelimiting
Credit calculations for the packet ratelimiting are not correct, as per the applied ratelimit of 25/second and burst 8, a total of 33 packets should have been accepted. This is true in iptables(33) but not in nftables (~65). For packet ratelimiting, use: div_u64(limit->nsecs, limit->rate) * limit->burst; to calculate credit, just like in iptables' xt_limit does. Moreover, use default burst in iptables, users are expecting similar behaviour. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
